The projects you worked on, did they give you valuable experience toward your career goals?

Moderate

What did you like best about your internship/co-op? What type of work were you doing?

All of the people I worked with were amazing. They were very helpful. They helped with everything.

I did work in all the departments. I focused more on fabric cutting. I would help organize patterns and take out ones we would need to cut. I did some quality control work as well. Spent a few days in that department.

What did you like least about your internship/co-op?

It was a lot of work. Standing at the cutting table all day would be very exhausting by the end of the day. I would come home and I wouldn’t be able to do much for the rest of the day

Open door policy

Feedback to management about the internship/co-op program:

In the email sent for interns, we were told we would get to sit in on inspiration meetings and we get to work along side the designers. I was there for several months and I didn’t get to do either. That’s the cool stuff that I was looking forward to.

Social experience

Regularly

How often were there opportunities to participate in social activities with your colleagues?

Never

Describe the office environment/culture.

Everyone is really easy going and nice. I got along with everyone. They treated me really well. I couldn’t be happier in this aspect.
